My, how swiftly they come and go! And each one brings change, mighty change, to farming as we have known it here."‘Some are wondering when it will stop. My guess is never. For we have always had change. It is a sort of natural law. And it has sure been operating fast in our time. In fact, we have seen more change itj farming and our way of life in our time than in all of the time that went before that. At this break neck speed of change, folks naturally wonder if and when .it will at least slow up. Maybe never, for progress has a way of pyramiding. Science is working fast in agricul ture .New things are found. Hie county agent demonstrates them in the field. Soon they are a part of our system. And we look to the experi ment station, the plant breeder, and to allied industrial research for still better things. t— By I. M. Qeazer Cleinson College Information Specialist Getting the findings of science ap plied quickly to the field has mark ed our agriculture in our time, and it largely acounts for abundance: As I’ve said before, this abundance brings its problems. But problems of abundance are far better than problems of scarcity, such as many countries of the world have . * . HOUSING CATTLE? Farm setups vary so there is often no best way of doing a job. I was impressed with this at the cattle man’s field day held last summer in Spartanburg Comity. The “best” for a farm depends upon so many things. T Several successful cattlemen were on the program. One never housed the cattle he was feeding out. "The other housed his as soon as rough weather set in. Each liked what he was domg. Clem son has had best results with a breeding hefd by not housing it. Patches of young pines in the pas- r tures serve as a windbreak and seem to give all the shelter that’s needed. NEW USE FQR OLD ' SCHOOL HOUSES Some abandoned school houses have beeh tom down Others have been converted into- community hoy^s that serve very useful pur poses. But County Agent Willis of Chesterfield tells of a new- one: “The citizens of the Angelas com munity have converted the large high school into a South Carolina State Bonded Warehouse. This gives the farmers in this community stor age facilities for approximately 1,- 000 bales of cotton.” t , _ * * * KNOW YOUR COWS We have a lot of rather new dai rymen in this state, 'fhey need to know their cows. And this caHs for at least some simple records of Production so the unprofitable cows can be weeded out. The WADAM.i (Weigh a day a month) program is 1 the very minimum in the way of such records each dairyman should have, says our C. G. Cushman. Full particulars about this, includ ing the necessary record sheets, can be secured from local county ;.gents. County Agent Wylie of Chester, says 25 of their dairymen are on this WADAM program * ♦ * BOYS ARE THAT WAY He was raised on a bottle, and never weaned. Just changed the content of the botHo as he grew up. We kids were deathly afraid of him when on a drunken spree, as he frequently was. One Christmas eve we heard him coming. His whooping and yelling, and the clatter of the buggy wheels and horse’s hoofs on the rocky road was unmistakable. . ‘ Before we could get awayi^md hide, he swished up ifi dur yard^md jerked the foaming horse to a sud den stop. This upset him and he fell forward across the dashboard catch ing to the singletree. With a few vile oaths at the horse, he righted himself, and then called us kids out to the buggy I had been scared before. But never quite that bad. He pulled an old sack from under the seat. Had about a half bushel of cans of sar dines in it. He gave eacF'of us one. Then he got out of the buggy, stag gered to the back of it, raised the boot, and it was plumb full of coco- i nuts He gave each of bne of them : Said. ‘ Kids, these is yourn ” He then climbed back in the bug gy. gave the horse a resounding whack with the whip, and barely- missed the corner of our lot fence as he swirled around the curve on his way home in the deep woods. We later learned fee was to have bought some Christmas things for the family with the money from their last remnant of cotton But theirs was just sardines and coco nuts that Christmas. Yes, and liq uor enuogh to ruin jt for them and make a beast of him ^ Public Records PROPERTY TRANSFERS J. D.
